The leadership task that can’t be ignored. 3 truths and 5 decisions. The DNRs leaders need to let go of? The Reinvention Mandate, avoid a predictable world. Be a “hospice worker to the old way and a midwife to the new.”  Learned helplessness within the system. Where is your heart in the work of preparing children for a noble future?   Five questions that unpack and encapsulate what is needed in education.  “Leadership is an extraordinarily lonely endeavor oftentimes. Going through the good times and the bad times you need people that you can call on. It doesn't matter the time of day, they will be there for you and you need to make the call. I would underscore what I've learned so far from those reinvention mandate interviews, nobody should do this work alone. The square squad. Write the name down and call them.” -Julie Jungalwala Full Transcript Julie Jungalwala Transcript   Julie Jungalwala’s Resources & Contact Info:   Human side of changing education Institute for the Future of Learning    LinkedIn Twitter   Looking for more?
